Nave Egizia by Bryan Woods - Amati - 1:50

Thanks Bob:-)  the kit came with like 8 spools of thread:-) That one shot of the back of the stern shows more rope than wood:-) Next is about 20 standing rigging lines:-)

Standing rigging halfway completed. I started with the fore stay. First, the plastic mast head was making it hard to tie the lines on. So I drilled two holes for them. Then I thought it work better to wrap them around the beam holding the truss then tie them to the pins. Plus my pins may not be glued strong enough to hold tension straight up:-)

Standing rigging completed. I started on the lowers ones for the ease of installation. It would have been better to start at the top to keep the tension equal. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is the kit supplied sail.

 

 

Not liking the wide hem, probably going to make another.

Yeah, that's your typical machine stitching -- very ill-suited to scale modeling. I agree that making another is the right option.
